G      C              A              A      C      G

C  G        x 2

C  G
Somebody screamed and all of Jim Jeffries' dreams
                F
Explode into a black fist, he falls to the floor
C  G
He stares up at the sky and he may wish he knew why
                 F
But you can't go back there no more

A
Future sounds so crazy
          G
We've all heard that song before
A
Tomorrow's the name we change from yesterday to blame
                          G
When the train just don't stop here anymore


C  G
I got starry-eyed on the coaster ride
                  F
Andy says, "man I need a break from the world outside"
         C  G
These days my life just careens through a pinball machine
                          F
I could do so much better but I can't get off the tilt

              A
And there's a photograph on the TV
                G
Black and white and Andy says something to you
A
Jack Johnson straddling Reno, Nevada like
              G
She says, "I forget myself sometimes too"
A
Out past the doorways where we are sleeping

          D
Well, the white queens creep

And the Tom cats peep


Chorus
E|------|

    C
Now I'm not breaking,
    D
The train's just shaking,
  G                            C
I never made it here before,
C                                        D
There's a white mouse spinning the girls around,
G                      C
'Til they can't take it anymore

           C
I used to dream in the dark 
   D
of Palisades park
G
Up over the cliffs and 
C
down among the sparks
C
It's a long life
D
Full of long nights
           A             D           C            
But it was not what I was waiting for
F              Em                           A
Everybody's seen the horses diving down the shore
        Em                               A
It's a miracle they don't make them anymore.


G
So make up ladies, wake up baby

C  G
You walked into the bar like some Saturday star
                  F
Stud-straight on spiked heels and needles and nerves,
C  G
You're a down town pride, fully amplified Clyde,
              F
Gin-tight and aging but well-preserved,
         A
Remember Andy outside your bedroom window,
                        G
Saying "come on, let's drive across to the Palisades"
     A
Keep going 'til we hit Reno, Nevada
                  G
I don't see Andy all that much these days,
                 A
Still there are pages in back,

Of the action stacks

            D
Where, the white queens creep

And the Tom cats peep and...

         C
Now the trains not braking,
     D
The track's just shaking,
   G
I never made it here before,
               C                     D
And there's a sky rocket turning the world around,
G                       C
'Til I can't take it anymore
C
You can carry that spark
     D 
from Palisades park
G                       C
Down over the cliffs and out into the dark
C
It's a long life
D
Full of long nights
           A             D      C
But it was not what I was looking for
F                  Em                        A
Everybody dreams of horses flying round the shore
        Em                             A
It's a bad dream we're not having anymore

G
Man,
          A
Have you seen Andy?
     G
Hey man hey man!
                     A
Have you seen him around?
     G
Hey man!
                                    A            
Have you seen my my my my my my my Andy?
         G
Have you seen him? x 4 Hey!
                      A
Have you seen Andy around?

G
Dressed up in our pirate best
     A
All leathers and feather and pearls
          D
Andy said, "look at me man, I'm cooking these hands could
G
Finger up this whole world"
               D
He said, "come outside
D
Climb out your bedroom window
C
Shimmy down the fire escape and say good-bye
D
Come outside"
                                     A
Andy says, "I'm dressed up just like Edie
                                                         G
Changing all the time my leopard spots to polka dots and say good-bye
D
Come outside 
                    A
Well maybe we could move to California
      C
Just meet me at the subway and say good-bye
D
Come outside
                          A
The cops all think we're crazy

If you stay you'll just get married
                             G         
To a girl who'll never know you and then say good-bye

G
Hey man, have you seen Andy?
   A
I lost her in the sun
      C
I was high as a kite on lovely and white
               G
Man, you could lose anyone
G
Hey hey man, have you seen Andy?
A
I don't know where she's gone
C
But real love outlives teenage lust
                 G
We could get wet and it keeps us warm
D
Love is like angel dust

Lovely sometimes changes us
   G
...sometimes not

D
Have you bee aching to trust or just...?
A
Have you been waking yourself with lust...?
C                                           A
Have you been making us up or just taking us home?

G
It's a long wait
C  G
At a long light
C  G
Cars frozen in flight
C  G
All the traffic stops to stare
A
At a crosswalk in Reno, Nevada
C
Wearing nothing but air
              A
And a pair of grey paper wings
                      C
Andy thinks, "man, I have got nothing to wear"
A
We got nothing new and
C
We got nothing to wear
C
We got nothing to wear
C              G
We got nothing to wear
